Description Not as fun or charming as the proceeding "Hermit Crab" but a little more intentionally designed - and I had to get it out of my system none the less.

Basically, a diesel-electric locomotive retrofit to get into the frontier of the reclaimed zones where it could then provide electricity as needed. This model has since been retrofit for winter use.

Mostly done but will be updating over the next few days with the time-lapse and minor updates.

Something about needing your electricity to come on wheels really appeals in a Mad Max kind of way.Β

its really a coincidence that they had a similar design before yours, though it's sad it didnt make it into the final versionΒ

I was channeling my severe lust for Mad Max as i was running through this all, I couldn't like the design of that world enough.

Very well thought out, you know I never once thought about the prospect of converting a Diesel Loco into a generator or even into a land vehicle, sigh, my creativity just isn't what it used to be. still I like your thinking, and the forethought you put into it really shows, if I may say so.

Don't beat yourself up - what I've discovered is best for these personal projects is to come up with a theme or a constraint and apply it to as many things as you can. One for instance is converting vehicles for road use. Another is "what if all water is lava"

Have fun!
